Got into a fender bender today on 880 off the thornton exit. Posted in the general discussion here is the link https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-discussion-3/fender-bender-155594/
Was thinking either michael j body shop or angel's IRC the one in milpitas by the police station. Whats your guys recomendation? Looks like alot of people recomend michael j. But I live down the street from angel's, I don't mind taking it to michael j if they are highly recomended. If they are about the same ill take it to angel's

I zoom therefore I am.
After the issue that a member has had with Michael J's I would say take it to Angel's. Michael J's charged him 4 hours for installing a MS bumper.. 4 hours???

Mazdaspeed, do you still have your bumper for sale? Don't have any idea how much body shops charge for anything. Would it be better to buy a new MS bumper or buy yours and repaint it.
Going to swing by angels tonight after work, not sure when they close. If they are ill be there tommorw, Mazdaspeed if your still selling your bumper mabye we can go to angels at the same time? Mabye i can go with ya to check the bumper out.

Bumper painted.
I finally painted my bumper.
I backed into my friends car and ruined the paint on my car while thier car had not one scratch on it.
So I took my bumper off and painted the parts even the black part.
I then painted the exhaust shrouds with a silver Marbilizer that stands out in the sunlight.
It looks pretty good but i am to much of a nit pick person.
Now i have to do my spoiler the idiot that did it at a body shop screwed it up and looks aweful.
I finally put the Hymee Exhaust on as well and will do video and sounds clips for Hymee as well.
Cheers.

Tony says, RX8s are GREAT
Sorry about your cat too, my mom has 15 house cats, there is a small swimming pool under the stair for the cat box and it takes a good 15min to clean it. I swear half her income goes to taking care of the cats but they are so cool. They all have their own personality.
On another note, I saw a winning blue RX8, ms front end and rear end, front factory mud flaps, stock rims, asian driver. I tried to talk to him when he parked but he was on his earpiece, I parked right in front of him and wanted to say hi. But the dude just took off!!!! I made total eye contact and was waiting for him to get out of his car... who is this guy. No free t-shirt for him when my business opens up...lol

rear bumper painting
Send me the paint code off of your door so I can get a paint true quote.
I have not charged for painting yet but it takes me a whole weekend to do that piece.
